great guitar, with "minor" cons
ttthw 10.09.2026
Almost a perfect guitar for the price. Good sound, absolutely beautiful neck.

Cons
- the setup was suboptimal when it arrives; but it's fairly easy to do it yourself with the Babicz bridge and adjustment wheel.
- the output socket feels clunky and I sometimes has to push hard to insert the audio jack, and it easily get loose. Although there is no visible defect when I took the lid off and examine the components (btw the wiring looks very clean). Perhaps it's some production tolerance issue with the socket.

I don't have much problem with these for its price. And these are easy to fix.

However the BIGGEST ISSUE is with the reversed headstock and the staggering tuning machines:

with a reversed headstock, the tuning peg for the low E string is at the far end. And it has the shortest tuner pole (forgive my poor terminology but you know what I mean). Part of the hole where you insert the string is UNDER the holding nut, and the remaining space is so narrow that installing a .46 low E string (Daddario EXL110) is impossible, despite that the guitar ships with 10-46 strings. I have to use a power tool to file down the nut so that I can install the string ... Hey Thomann, the factory should have reported the issue to you, haven't they? I think it's rather a design issue than quality issue, or perhaps this only happens in this batch. If you are buying the EMG version with a reversed headstock, be aware of the issue. And hopefully Thomann fix it in the next batch :)

On the other hand, the guitar is so good that I must keep it, and went ahead to do the mod myself, knowingly it may void the warranty XD.

Top Qualität, Sound muss schmecken
JulesRules1311 20.08.2026
Ich habe diese Gitarre gekauft, weil ich heavy stuff spielen wollte. Von Avenged Sevenfold, Metallica, Architects, bis BMTH. Dafür eignet sich die Gitarre auch.
Für den klassischen high-gain-sound wie My Chemical Romance etc. hin mit klassischen LesPauls zaubern dagegen nicht.
Die Clean sind toll, die Distorted Sounds auch, ABER:
Am Ende hat es für mich nicht gepasst, weil dieses "warme, lebendige" (absolut subjektiv!) einer LesPaul gefehlt hat...
Objektiv Hammer Gitarre zu tollem Preis!
Locking Tuners (wobei die nicht so richtig stabil sind...) sexy reversed Headstock, schöne Farbe, leicht im Gewicht, gute Bespielbarkeit... Weiter so Harley Benton + Thomann!

Harley Benton means business

I don't want to do an overly long review, as initially that's what I was thinking, so this will be just a semi-overly long review.

Wanted a metal guitar to use in Drop C. Didn't want to break the bank, as I am just a bedroom guitarist, and I already have 3 guitars. So HB was on the top of my list. Saw that this model was released recently, it look good on paper and omg, it is really good irl.

So, black matte finish that looks very cool. The neck also has an interesting matte finish, so basically 0 friction from your hand. Locking tuners are ok, not the best not the worst. Babicz bridge is actually really good. The pickups are interesting. Active but with passive feeling, plenty of output I'd say, but 81/85 have just a bit more output. The pickups alone cost like 200$. I don't feel like changing them anytime soon.

Plays incredible, sounds incredible, looks good.

The only con I have is that the access to the 22-24 frets is tricky though. Even 20-22 is slightly tricky. But I won't shred on this guitar, I'll mostly riff on it. And on this note, I don't think this is a shredder neck. If you are used to Wizard necks, this is far from it. It's 100% NOT baseball bat thick. But wanted the neck to be just a tiny bit thinner, something like 20-22, not 21-23mm, as I ain't also a fan of the 19mm Wizard necks. But neck will always be a preference thing.

All and all, HB means serious business. This is not just a good guitar for the price. It's a good guitar period. The era of cheap and good is here, and the era of expensive and mid will slowly fade away. A "branded" guitar with the same exact specs will go for at least double this price. And if I'm not mistaken, this model is made in Indonesia (might be wrong, double check that).

P.S.: The Fusion IV EMG has the same exact specs, released in the exact same time period. So everything I've said most likely apply to that as well, minus the higher fret access probably.

Es una locura estas specs y esta construcción por el precio que tiene. Se toca bien, suena bien y se siente muy robusta. Aplauso por los detalles de ergonomía del cuerpo y el acabado de los trastes. De la caja ya salía para tocar. Solo ha necesitado un ajuste del alma y un rebaje de cejuela (esto último para dejarla profesional).

Le pongo 4 estrellas porque los clavijeros venían colocados a la inversa (el más corto en la cuerda más grave y viceversa. Como tiene pala invertida la habrán montado como si fuera de zurdos) y una de las guías de cuerdas está desalineada y voy a tener que hacerle otro taladro.

Pero genial. Me la compraría otra vez.
